When you ask "What number is halfway between 39 and 284?" we assume you mean the number in the exact middle of the two numbers on a number line, as illustrated below, where X=39 and Y=284.

To find the number halfway between 39 and 284, we use the following formula:
(X + Y)/2 = Halfway Between
When we enter 39 and 284 into our formula, we get:
(39 + 284)/2 = 161.5
Thus, the number halfway between 39 and 284 is 161.5.
To check that our answer is correct, we subtract 39 from 161.5 and subtract 161.5 from 284 and compare the two numbers:
161.5 - 39 = 122.5
284 - 161.5 = 122.5
As you can see, the halfway number is 122.5 higher than 39 and 122.5 lower than 284. Therefore, our halfway between answer of 161.5 above is correct.
